From the Editor: A modest proposal related to registration

PUNGO — President-elect Donald Trump in 2015 said he wouldn’t rule out compiling a registration of Muslim people in the U.S. Now it looks like registration is being discussed, at least among some of his supporters, though the extent of what might follow remains to be seen.

Trump surrogates recently have discussed a policy of registration for people who come here from Muslim countries, which, essentially, was done before. The campaign could not be reached for details. In the spirit of helping an idea reach its potential, here is a voluntary registration form to help Christians prepare to provide useful information to the government.

Christians can choose whether to fill out and mail the form below to the White House via 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue NW, Washington, D.C., 20500. This is not an official document, of course. But this small effort may help the incoming administration focus on something more substantial than musical theater.
